merge: Extract scheduler from simulation coroutine dispatcher (#106)

This pull request extracts the scheduler from the `SimulationCoroutineDispatcher` into 
a separate `SimulationScheduler` class which allows users to re-use the scheduler 
between different coroutine dispatchers.

We implement the `SimulationScheduler` in Java, removing the explicit dependency on 
Kotlin or `kotlinx-coroutines`. The scheduler uses a separate specialized priority queue 
implementation that eliminates allocation in the hot path of the simulator.

## Implementation Notes :hammer_and_pick:

* Add Java-based simulator core
* Use SimulationScheduler in coroutine dispatcher
* Rename runBlockingSimulation to runSimulation

## External Dependencies :four_leaf_clover:

* N/A 

## Breaking API Changes :warning:

* The Kotlin API for simulation has been moved to `org.opendc.simulator.kotlin`.
* `runBlockingSImulation` renamed to `runSimulation`
